What aftermarket Rims should I get?

[pro5]

If anyone that has installed 17" or 18" wheels on their pro5's could you post the pictures?

I am having a hard time deciding what wheels to get. I currently like the 17" ADR Kasai wheels in chrome. Any ideas?

Thanks,
pro5

check out the AV and Sponser/ group buy section.

Rishie -> autornd -> has a group buy on 17s.

The downshifts are available now and the
actions have 2 signed up and need 3 more.

but you should really ask in the tires/rims section.

Get some 18s like mine! (yippy)

you should check out these rota attacks (http://http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73315). were doing a groupbuy right now.(thumb)

[Giallou P5]

red is overrated, i would go yellow hehe for the hoses

[SPRFLY]

well, if i do that it will cost more to get the yellow to match the car.. and i was also thinking of chrome for the valve cover!! and then painting the "M" and the "mazda" red..

[Giallou P5]

that would look sweet, i must see pics when finished

Question maam. http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/9/web/621000-621999/621912_32_full.jpg

on the intake what is that BOX with the plug in it do, i never really got an anwser

[protegeV]

i would not do red, because the whole red/yellow thing is NOT good just because it looks good on ferraris...just dont look good...and you'll be hard pressed to find a yellow that matches the car, so go with cilver or blue

keep it simple, go black

[SPRFLY]

well, i don't know about the ferrari thing... but i think that the red accent's the yellow nicely.. myself.. there are so many yellow p5's in the dallas area, and yet they all look different!i would not do red, because the whole red/yellow thing is NOT good just because it looks good on ferraris...just dont look good...and you'll be hard pressed to find a yellow that matches the car, so go with cilver or blue

[SPRFLY]

it's the master air flow sensor. it controls the air flow.Question maam. http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/9/web/621000-621999/621912_32_full.jpg

[bazooka joe]

what drop do you have on that thing sir
1.5" +- eibach pro kit

[Giallou P5]

it's the master air flow sensor. it controls the air flow.


How come only Injen has that, i see others and i havent seen it on there

[Giallou P5]

1.5" +- eibach pro kit

what size rims do u have, 18's or 19

[SPRFLY]

i have 17'swhat size rims do u have, 18's or 19

[Giallou P5]

nice. What size rims you rolling on BazookaJoey

[SPRFLY]

my husband had a K&N intake on his P5 and it used that same air flow sensor, it was just in a different place. (doesn't have his P5 anymore, he traded it in for a MSP.)How come only Injen has that, i see others and i havent seen it on there

[Giallou P5]

ery smart, thats what i was going to do

[dudeondacouch]

ummm.... the MAF is a stock part.... it just gets relocated to b/w the piping sections with the INJEN.

[Giallou P5]

ummm.... the MAF is a stock part.... it just gets relocated to b/w the piping sections with the INJEN.

thank you

[bazooka joe]

nice. What size rims you rolling on BazookaJoey
18"

[SPRFLY]

Yes that's true but, it still has to be used, because the intake doesn't come with it. same with the K&N..ummm.... the MAF is a stock part.... it just gets relocated to b/w the piping sections with the INJEN.

[SPRFLY]

it's an important part or so i am told... it controls how much air flow the engine takes in.

[dudeondacouch]

you were told correctly... no MAF=wrong answer

[SPRFLY]

thank you , thank you very much!! alot of guys think that a girl know's nothing of cars, for that matter alot of stuff at would be "guy stuff". but, i know alot more then alot of guys think i do. i have shocked my husband.lol(thumb) you were told correctly... no MAF=wrong answer

[YelPro03]

What size tire do you have? 205/35-18? Any rubbing issues with the 1.5" drop?1.5" +- eibach pro kit

[SPRFLY]

<DIR>215/40/17 is what i have.. no rubbing for me.. but when i drop the car i think it may rub.. but i am thinking of haveing the wheels machined...meaning shaveing off a few milameters off the inside hub. or maybe just haveing the finder's rolled..hmm??(uhm)



</DIR>

[Giallou P5]

im running 205/40's if i lower my car 1.8 will i start rubbing, i have a 42mm offset

[SPRFLY]

when i ordered my rims.. i didn't think about the offset thats why i have to have the rims machined..:(im running 205/40's if i lower my car 1.8 will i start rubbing, i have a 42mm offset

[Giallou P5]

but will i rub? im lowering 1.6"

[SPRFLY]

more then likely yes.. i am only droping 1.25 and the person that is dropping mine said mine will rub..:(but will i rub? im lowering 1.6"
